RLAAQ - Chapter 11 < Prince Arthur >

Refusing Love As A Queen

After reading Heinrich’s letter, Adele frowned.

After receiving Archbishop Rodri's warning, Adele did not do anything. While she continued to maintain Dalton's reuse, the spies of the Heinrich family had disguised themselves as blacksmiths, and grooms... scattered like shadows everywhere.

The favorite haunt of the Old God sect.

Except for the brown bear on the hunting ground today, there is no other signal. But the dangerous factor has spread quietly in the air.

"Dalton seems to want to reform the military police."

Kelly folded the towel and put it aside, while her husband took care of the royal family's daily meals. Some information is that her husband mixed vegetables and fruits and sent them to her, and then sent them to the Queen.

If possible, Adele certainly hopes that she can have a spy network like the Heinrich family. But she knew very well that it was not the time yet, regardless of the fact that her dear mentor was now working for her again, but this effectiveness was based on the port agreement and the armed civilian ship license.

There may be some guilt mixed in, but the guilt was nothing more than that.

As is the case in court, feeling is one thing and action is another.

"The Imperial Council will not agree."

Adele put the secret letter on the candle and watched the flames devour it.

During this period, the government was not peaceful. The nobles from ancient families tried their best to resist Dalton's actions, while Dalton attracted other small nobles and new nobles.

The Queen moves cautiously in the contest between the two parties. The great nobles sensed that she bore no grudge against them.

"They have rumors..."

Kelly paused and carefully observed the Queen's expression.

"Your relationship with Dalton is not that simple. You intend to make him your husband."

In fact, the rumors did not go as far as Kelly's. She relayed it so gently.

As a queen, once Adele has excessive contact with any man, it means there will be countless gossip. Think about it, a beautiful Queen and a young General. The general bravely rescued the Queen on the night of mutiny. Isn't it normal for her to fall in love with him?

Some people have even asserted convincingly in the tavern that when the Queen was in the Day Palace, she must have rewarded the General on the bed...well...in a way that everyone understands.

The words were so obscene that Kelly strictly forbade anyone to let them reach the Queen's ears.

"Oh, you said that."

Adele said casually,

"I asked Heinrich to send someone to spread the word. Judging by your expression, he seems to have done a good job."

"You?!"

Kelly was stunned. She widened her eyes, and soon showed an angry expression,

"How can you be like this...How can you make fun of your own reputation?"

Kelly, why do you think Dalton didn't mention Ambassador Root for three whole days?"

Adele unfolded the map and looked down.

"Because of you."

Kelly said without hesitation.

"I am very grateful that you think so highly of my charm."

The Queen raised her head, showing a somewhat delicate expression,

"Maybe a little bit, but it is not easy to impress an ambitious General, especially one like Dalton. Like this - he is a commoner."

Like in other countries, there is an insurmountable gap between the nobility and the common people.

A well-fed nobleman can easily become a bishop or a judge after graduating from a seminary, but a civilian youth with outstanding grades can only act as a clerk for the former.

Dalton's adventurous and gambling nature didn't come out of nowhere either. He knew that he was a commoner, and only by risking his life and death could he tear something out of the fangs of the nobles. This is doomed to his character - he will cling to everything he snatches.

Kelly understood what the Queen meant.

"So you planned to marry the Root Empire from the beginning?"

"Roland needs an ally."

Having said this, the Queen simply stood up.

She stretched out her hand to open the curtains and bathed herself in the dim yellow light. The crown in her hair shone with dazzling light. The Queen's side face looks like a statue made of brass in the light, showing the perseverance and coldness that the world thinks is rare in women.

"Of course I have beauty, but what's more important than this is..."

She turned around, her voice echoing under the dome of the temple.

"I am the Queen, and I am Roland."

***

The wheels of the carriage rolled over the road, and the midsummer dust mixed with the smell of blood that had not dissipated rose in the air.

Although the rebellion at the end of July came to an end with the return of the Queen to the Day Palace, during the rebellion, many people took the opportunity to make trouble, robbing, stealing, and assassinating. In short, blood can still be seen on the side of the street.

"It ended pretty quickly."

The carriage curtain was lifted, revealing a handsome face with classic beauty.

He is the real ambassador sent by the Root Empire to discuss marriage affairs, Emperor Root's younger brother, Prince Arthur. Prince Arthur has blond curly hair that is brighter than the sun, a high nose bridge, and sea-blue eyes. Anyone who sees him will praise him for his handsomeness.

It's a pity that, compared with his young and promising elder brother, Prince Arthur is just a pompous kid with only appearance.

Everyone knows that Prince Arthur of the Root Empire knows nothing about military affairs, politics, or economics. He liked gorgeous costumes and was madly obsessed with art. In his castle, artists were always regarded as honored guests. And people know... artists, there are always some abnormal behaviors and nerves.

Maybe it's because of too much time with artists, Prince Arthur also seems a little crazy.

"It's a pity."

The accompanying official sighed,

"It would be better if it was later."

When the news of the rebellion in the Roland Empire reached the Root Empire, their Emperor jumped up with joy and immediately sent spies to observe the situation of Roland's rebellion. When he heard that the two sides were at a stalemate, the Emperor immediately sent envoys to discuss the proposal with Queen Roland.

Originally, the most powerful situation for them was that Queen Roland agreed to His Majesty's marriage proposal, and the Root Empire sent troops to assist the Queen in quelling the rebellion and successfully took control of the Roland Empire.

But...

Hell, who would have thought that Queen Roland would quell the riot so quickly?

"It seems that brother's plan will not be so easy to realize."

Prince Arthur said with a smile, but his eyes looked a little gloomy.

The attendant sitting opposite him did not dare to speak.

As the Prince's confidant, he knows very well what kind of master he is loyal to - under the skin of this young Prince's debauchery, there is a... demonic soul hidden.

Prince Arthur's pale fingers tapped on the glass of the car window, making a strange melody sound.

His coldness went away as quickly as it came. Soon he laughed again, with blond hair and blue eyes, handsome as an angel.

"Speaking of which, my dear brother asked me to do another thing."

It is rumored that Adele Roland has a beauty that can captivate all living beings. However, Emperor Root obviously didn't believe this much... You know, as long as the Princesses are not blind and have broken legs, they can be called "beautiful and pleasant" even if they are extremely ugly. There was once a poor King who immediately cursed the court painters and envoys deeply after seeing his fiancée.

For this reason, he specially asked his younger brother to paint for the Queen himself so that he could teach him to look at it.

"Maybe the rumors are true," said the accompanying officer.

"Then I really envy the King."
